A pack-out is a 10 dollar charge for putting your collectable into a box for shipping, otherwise they ship them out unprotected so to speak, they just slap a shipping label on the hot toys shipper box.

I hate receiving stuff all dinged up, even if it is a shipper box, some of my collection is a MIB so I want it to be mint.

Not sure you know what a pack out is my friend. So just to be safe, as I'm sure (if) you wouldn't be the only one that doesn't know---

The pack out is simply a shipping option. Just like ups vs usps vs fedex vs dhl ect. Just an option. (Though it's not a service to mail, just used that as an example to illustrate that it does not matter what is shipped like with those companies). It was offered as an option mostly for MIB people who would return items (not just hot toys) because the package was damaged in shipping. But it's not only MIB that use it. Anyone that is worried about damage also uses it. Anyone can use it though. Never a bad idea. It's essentially a little extra padding and an extra exterior shipping layer. Remember, sideshow is a business, so they can't spend 15 bucks on bubble wrap on every package and buy another box just so the already provided mailer doesn't get damaged. That's bad business. But being a mainly adult oriented collector company, they cater to people that do often want that extra peace of mind and insurance so they offer the protection at a fee. It's actually a very smart move. Best of both worlds as you will.

Hope that helps, if you didn't know. Or others didnt. If you did your probably not reading at this point anyway, which is probably the same for most everyone else. So I'd like to take this opportunity to confess that I often wear ladies...umm never mind. :)
Thanks guys I didn't know what it was lol I just want my figure no extra padding needed
 
So I take it no ones shipped? Is it stuck at the port? :slap:lol

I'm betting most will ship later today and will all be saying wednesday and hopefully i'll have mine by next week with rest of you. 1 more day til charge.
 
SS charged my card this morning but status is just "shipping soon." Oh well, was hoping to have Spidey by tomorrow but looks like next week.



If they charge you today if be surprised if anyone got it with in day. Especially given the weekend and holiday this week. Have you gotten it a day after you where charged before?
 
i dont like the new spiderman hot toys, its to much cartoon

How so?

Have you seen the movie costume it's based on? Looks pretty spot on, to me.

What exactly do you mean by too cartoony? And not to point out the obvious, but this is a supposed to be a nerd in a homemade spandex suit..that's what Spider-Man is..so I'm not sure how else it should look. To me, and again, it's all opinion, (though mind is always right..ok so maybe not but anyway) I think this new suit is the most comic/source accurate marvel costume(movie/tv) to date.
 
Recieved my Spidey from Loontentoys today and am very impressed. I haven't done much in the way of reposing yet but plan on doing so over the weekend.
 
You wear ladies? Doesn't that get heavy at some point? :)

Back on topic-- I had a waitlist convert for the EX last month but decided to cancel it earlier this week. I like having an exclusive (though I'd have no use for the plutonium canister), but recent HT sales/discounts on Sideshow have made me rethink buying figures when they first come out. I really like the figure, but I can wait it out. Worst case, I'll use a $20 coupon on the regular version if it gets low in stock before it gets discounted. Anyways, congrats to whoever gets my spot on the EX waitlist.

Did the exact same thing, at worst Ill get the regular version next year, the figure is nice but not nice enough for me to pay full price for it. Congrats to the one who gets my EX version too. Gone are the days where you have to pre order figures because they will be out of stock soon.
 
I LOVE , LOVE the design and very happy how he turned out! This is the most ICONIC representation of him. I Grew up reading SPECTACULAR , AMAZING , WEB OF AND Mcfarlane realy was my favorite artist growing up reading then drawing his comics ALL the time. The black version would be amazing to get next sometime and hope they adapt it to future spidey film.





last pic a old pic of my crappy try at drawing From a PAGE FROM- my favorite issue of WHAT IF COMIC'S ? What if Kraven KILLED SPIDERMAN.

Me to, I actually have that first comic you posted, it was available in 3 cover finishes, the one shown and two other with that reflective stuff:hi5:
 
Yep have few copy's of the # 1 myself and never get old rereading my old spidey comic's always good story's and a lot of great artists have drawn spidey and loved learning to draw from my comic's Love my CROSS OVER'S . I WISH THEY would just give us A FEW MOVIE CROSSOVER'S is my DREAM with GHOSTRIDER n SPIDEY to ,my X-force , X -MEN and Wish DC and Marvel team up with spidey & batman to superman. SPIDEY IS the Kevin BACON GAME LINK TO COMIC'S. Link spidey to any character in 10 moves to anyone game.

Yes sir, I rarely double up anymore with prices an such, but this one impressed me enough to want one for my MIB collection. I'm about done for the year now, just got one more flex payment for my T-800 in December and that's it.
 
HA Ha same here almost 2 more payments 4 arnold but might bring him home early nothin but droids 4 holidays waitin 2 see if r2 arrives on time next month. Not sure may try get a double of arnold. A great way to end the year we have had some sweet release's this year.
